Some components, such as CP rectifiers and test stations, may be subject to regulatory requirements that call for readings to be taken as often as every two months. ...
These surveys provide valuable information about the level of protection achieved and help identify areas where cathodic protection may be insufficient. Synchronized Interruption Surveys: These surveys involve interrupting the cathodic protection current simultaneously across multiple points on the pipeline. ...
The anode is energized to a positive potential, usually by a rectifier that converts AC power to DC, so that it releases electrons to the cathode pipeline through the rectifier path. ...
MOBILTEX’s CorTalk RMU products can also be used to remotely capture instant-‘off’ data at specific test points or to complete GPS-synchronized interruption of a series of rectifiers in order to make cathodic protection surveys simpler and more accurate than ever before. MOBILTEX offers a holistic approach to cathodic protection monitoring, so ...
That means CP technicians no longer need to visit test stations and rectifiers at regular intervals to take readings. Instead, they respond only when the remotely transmitted data indicates an operational issue that requires attention and can then focus their time and energy on higher-value optimization initiatives. ...
